Where it goes
Is Custom World Generation required on the client, server, or both?
The project page does not say whether this file belongs on the client, dedicated server, or both.
The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.
What else does Custom World Generation custom_worldgen-0.2.0.jar need?
custom_worldgen-0.2.0.jar. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
This file does not list any required mods. Do not add a library just because a different file uses it.

About this project
What does Custom World Generation add?
Abstract
This mod is separated from Ocean World. You can customize terrain generation, biome generation and structure generation with this mod.
How to use
Install this mod. Server side is required while client side is optional (no effect whether install in client side or not).
Edit custom_worldgen-config.json in "config" folder in your game directory at server side (for single player, this is located at ".minecraft/config"; for multiple player, this is located in "<server directory>/config").
Following the guide in custom_worldgen-config-readme.md. You can also use Ocean World Config Generator to help you do this.
Compatibility
Before 1.20, if you want to play this mod with other mods that add biomes (for example, BYG and Emerald Craft), you need to install Ocean Blender as well.
After 1.20, ocean blender is merged into this mod so you don't have to install any other mod else.
I have to say that all biome mods except BOP can work with this mod together. I tried to contact with the author of BOP, but he seems not to want to fix this compatibility issue.
